I ended up with the eldar boarding patrol's 2x corsairs, but my group is at the moment only playing 8th edition (but also they're pretty flexible) and I'd like to add them to my Saim-Hann army.
So, I'm curious, how would you run 9th edition corsairs models in 8th edition? The 8th edition rules for FW corsairs do a fairly poor job reflecting the 9th model options, besides being crippled by how they integrate into an army. Right now my first instinct would be to run them as Ynnari Kabalite warriors with minimal homebrew gear options reflecting the 9th models (though this axes the psyker without taking significant liberties) but I'm not all that convinced that'll be the best. I've also considered trying to reverse-engineer their 9th edition rules to 8th based on how other units have been updated, but feel like that's almost more of a stretch...
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
